HE SHOULD'VE TAKE A LAWYER,SAYING THAT HE TOOK THE DRINK THAT VERY MORNING.ALL ALCOHOL CASES ARE CHECK AT THE SPOT,THERE THEY WILL KNOW THE ALCOHOL LEVEL.NEVER MIND THEY DONT KNOW THEIR WORK.WHO TO BLAME?

WAS THE DRUNK DRIVER TAKEN TO MEDICAL
CENTER FOR EXAMINATIONS,?OR THE POLICE
DID IT BY THEIRSELVES,BY JUST BEATHING
OF THE SCENT OF THE ALCOHOL
I think 30 days is too small 90 days will be ok to teach the rest lesson one of them nearly killed us on Nungua road he was sleeping they said.
